I picked up a guitar about 12 months ago. And eddie has, and always was, one of my biggest inspirations for doing so. Coincidentally, I started learning Aint Talkin Bout Love only a week ago, and slowly getting there, its one of my favourite ever songs. Im only 24, but this song and Eddie's work, gives me a sense of nostalgia, which doesn't technically exist due to my age. That's how good he was, he created magic. Rest in peace Eddie.

I had literally been playing Van Halen music all night the night before at the pool, and even posted 2 of their videos on a 70’s music Facebook group page, never realizing it was his last night here on earth. I hope he is looking down on us now, realizing how much he was adored and admired by millions of people, and smiling with that gorgeous grin that made me and so very many other females hearts melt ❤️❤️🙏🙏🥰🥰 R.I.P.

My dad manages a restaurant EVH happened to like. One day when he came to the restaurant, my dad called my mom and told her to bring me and my guitar. EVH signed it and gladly took a picture. Legends never die. RIP EVH.

I'm not sure if the word is awe, but when you've got someone as talented as MJ kind of at odds as to what to do with himself in his own supreme domain, you know another genius has just entered the building. RIP Eddie Van Halen

I've always been a VH fan since they release VH1 in '78, but I don't like the bad/cheap work that have been done here... not a single cool transition from a video to another and other details. I didn't put a dislike... but didn't click the like button. That's maybe why the Bieber fans put a 👎🏼 And finally, who cares if some people don't like the same stuff??? The only videos I saw without a single 👎🏼 have always been those getting 1-10 likes. Some dislikes won't change my love for a track, record(s) and a Group or Artist 🤷🏽‍♂️

I doubt he'd ever have it there; but yes....the Frankenstrat, a guitar that probably cost $500 to build, is likely now worth millions on legacy alone!!!!

There is infact already one there , I was there about a year ago and they had a display , what they really need is a bigger one

The Frankenstein guitar is at the Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP) in Seattle WA. It's one of many guitars they have from many iconic guitarist.

I was so happy to have gotten the chance to see Eddie Van Halen perform in concert with my father who introduced my brother and I to Van Halen’s music. My dad said when he was young he would always air guitar to every guitar solo Eddie did. Thank you Eddie for your amazing music and creating an incredible bond between my father and I.

Wow, that footage at the end from the "Live: Without a Net" concert video brings back memories. I wore out two of those tapes watching them over and over and over. RIP Eddie...fucking legend.

[@billyfubar2748]

That last clip I think was the most legendary version of eruption The way his solo section started, he sits down on the stage and plays this chilled blues lick with a cigarette, and works up slowly into finally eruption and seals in fucking diamond when he tosses the pick away and lands it perfectly The hammering is tapping was just right, beautiful guitar tone, great sound work by the engineer throughout the show and as a musician and producer I really vote that last clip to be the most beautifully done version of eruption. It wasnt rushed it was just sweet Start finish Bravo my dude, rest in peace st eddie

[@ChrisGarcia-ex4sg]

2007. I was 12 years old at a chess tournament that I lost in my first game. My best bud lost shortly after, and he brought me to his dad’s truck. What I heard blew me away so intensely that it still feels like yesterday. I had heard Eruption for the first time. I got my first guitar less than 6 months after that and still wannabe shred today. Thank you Eddie for giving me memories to reflect back on someday. You’ve inspired so many and will continue to do so thank you to the internet. It’s not tears, it’s allergies.

[@clutchkman]

Amazing stuff! One of my favorite EVH riffs is the intro to Ain’t talking bout love. It’s just beautiful. He left an incredible legacy for us to enjoy.
